From Elim to Carmel: Aspects of Christian Doctrine and Experience

THIS SCHMUL PUBLISHING CO. EDITION IS NOT A SCANNED FACSIMILE OF A USED BOOK. It has been carefully typeset and proofread for accuracy and for easier reading by today’s readers. Consequently there are no odd characters or missing text. As they fled from the bondage of Egypt, the Israelites passed through Elim on their way to the Promised Land, before they crossed the Jordan River. On the Mediterranean coast is Mt. Carmel. Between the two points lies the whole of the Land of Israel. Similarly, the author takes a broad overview of the Christian life, encompassing various points of interest between the moment of salvation and entire sanctification. He addresses several different areas that affect the Believer and his influence, and he does not shy away from controversy. Some of these spiritual debates have been laid to rest since the original publication of the book; some still boil strongly; but all of them he addresses with the eternal principles of God’s Word. For instance, he considers the effect of modern technology on the Kingdom of God. He is ebullient with the tremendous possibilities such advances offer to spread the Gospel, and his joy shows through. If he could have seen the advantages of today’s communications, he would not have been intimidated at all. Far from it-he would have been beside himself in considering the implications to spread the Good News. These are timeless truths from God’s Word, calling all to a holy life, whether in the first or the twenty-first century.
